Hi friends! When I hear the term “couch art” it is usually referring to pretty paintings that you would hang above the couch but today I am going to share a sketch created from the couch.

Sometimes you just need to let go of perfection, take away the pressure to produce and just draw with no expectation. I think that is why adult coloring books are so popular nowadays. We just need some quiet time to create. Coloring, drawing and painting can be very meditative and soothing, in fact you might be hard pressed to worry about anything when you are being creative. 🙂 So, if you are feeling restless, anxious, tired or down have a rest on the sofa, make a nice hot cup of tea, grab your supplies and create some beautiful couch art. Take care of yourself and happy crafting!

Beautiful! I have chair art, too. I have a small set of draws in the living room, next to my chair, with various supplies. So, when I have to sit with my heating pad, I can still be creating, usually in a journal. I have been obsessed with doing faces lately, so I wanna copy yours, if ya don’t mind. I love how you did the eyes, and everything else. Maybe you should make a book out of your “couch art”! I would buy it, to copy, or get inspired while I am sitting in my chair. I’m sure you just have lots of xtra time to do that, right? Thanks for sharing! Love it!

I’ve been drawing in a small sketch book that I keep beside my sofa in the living room. I tried adding coloured pencils and things to use but it quickly became a cluttered pile and I stopped using it. As soon as I went back to the little book, a pencil and the eraser, I started to create again. It is relaxing to keep the tools simple and let the imagination do the rest.
